    I’m conflicted because I love cars and how they work (including EVs!!!) but also don’t entirely love how loud they can be.

    I got a GR Corolla which has a little tiny 3 cylinder engine, but it’s so loud on cold starts. Luckily I live in the woods, because I would feel so bad cold starting it in a neighborhood.

    I’m conflicted because I love my car, but can also appreciate how cars just don’t have to be so loud that they give you temporary deafness as they drive by. Unfortunately with internal combustion, louder generally equals better flow in the exhaust which equals more power.
